Reviews for this host's other properties

Excellent accommodation in the heart of Sultanahmet. The apartment is conveniently located so that Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, Hippodrome, Grand Bazar and the Bascilica Cistern are within walking distance. Tram stop is just a few minutes walk from the apartment.
The apartment is very well maintained. Duplex apartment can sleep 7 persons - 5 in the first floor and 2 in the ground floor. 2 big toilets make it convenient for 2/3 families staying together. The kitchen was well stocked with breakfast for the first morning. The host also arranged for pick-up from and drop to the airport.
Highly recommended for staying while in Istanbul.

A really nice, super clean accommodation. The photos make the apartment really faithfully dar. White, soft, thick towels in large numbers. The refrigerator filled with the essentials, and a few bottles of drinking water. It looks out to the sea, from the tiny balcony. The muezzin is heard as if he is in the room. The location of the apartment is in the old town in a residential area, narrow streets, garbage lying around which is picked up early in the morning, there are really old buildings and at first glance it is somewhat shocking as worn and ancient is everything. We liked it well, a warm welcome when arriving in the apartment. Toll!

Thank you for being so accommodating when our plans changed at the last minute due to transport difficulties. Rearranging the pick up for us meant a whole lot less worry. The apartment is very comfortable, well appointed and well stocked. The necessities for the first breakfast were a most welcome particularly as we arrived a lot later than we anticipated. It all added up to a super stay in Istanbul and the location is exceptionally convenient to all the sites and there are lots of convenient mini-markets selling all the basics. Ann & Sheila
